ELECTRONIC RANGE SELECTION (ERS)
• Electronic Range Select (ERS) allows youto limit the highest available
transmission gear, and can be activated
during any driving condition. When
towing a trailer or operating the vehicle
in off-road conditions, using ERS shift
control will help you maximize both
performance and engine braking.
• To switch from DRIVE mode to ERS mode, tap the shift lever to the left (-) once. The instrument cluster will display the current gear (the transmission may downshift), and
the transmission will not upshift beyond that gear. Tapping the shift lever to the left (-)
or right (+) will decrease or increase the top available gear. To disable ERS, simply
hold the shift lever to the right (+) until “D” is again displayed in the instrument cluster.
• Switching between ERS and DRIVE mode can be done at any vehicle speed.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

PARKSENSE®REAR PARK ASSIST
• The four ParkSense®sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area
behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view.
• When an object is detected within two meters behind the rear bumper while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will display in the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) and a chime will sound (when Sound and Display is selected from the
Customer Programmable Features section of the EVIC). As the vehicle moves closer to
the object, the chime rate will change from slow, to fast, to continuous.
Cleaning the ParkSense®Sensors
• If “CLEAN PARK ASSIST SENSORS” appears in the Electronic Vehicle InformationCenter (EVIC), clean the ParkSense®sensors with water, car wash soap and a soft
cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors. Otherwise,
you could damage the sensors.
NOTE: When the Instrument Cluster reads either Clean Sensor or Blinded, please clean
off the bumper sensors to see if the condition is corrected.
PARKVIEW®REAR BACK-UP CAMERA
• You can see an on-screen image of the rear of your vehicle whenever the shift lever is put into REVERSE. The ParkView®Rear Back-Up Camera image will be displayed on
the radio display screen, located on the center stack of the instrument panel.
• If the radio display screen appears foggy, clean the camera lens located on the liftgate.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even when using the ParkView®Rear
Back-Up Camera. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to
check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or blind spots before
backing up. You must continue to pay attention while backing up. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.

QUADRA-TRAC I®
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
Quadra-Trac I®Operating
Instructions/Precautions - 3.6L
Only
• The Quadra-Trac I®is a single-speed
(HI range only) transfer case, which
provides convenient full-time
four-wheel drive. No driver interaction
is required. The Brake Traction Control
(BTC) System, which combines
standard ABS and Traction Control,
provides resistance to any wheel that
is slipping to allow additional torque
transfer to wheels with traction.
QUADRA-TRAC II®/
QUADRA-DRIVE II
®
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
Quadra-Trac II®/Quadra-Drive
II®Operating Instructions/
Precautions
• The Quadra-Trac II®/Quadra-Drive
II®transfer case is fully automatic in
the normal driving 4WD HI mode. The Quadra-Trac II
®/Quadra-Drive
II®transfer case provides three mode
positions:
• 4WD HI
• NEUTRAL
• 4WD LOW
• This transfer case is fully automatic in the 4WD HI mode.
• When additional traction is required, the 4WD LOW position can be used
to lock the front and rear driveshafts
together and force the front and rear
wheels to rotate at the same speed.
The 4WD LOW position is intended
for loose, slippery surfaces only.
Driving in the 4WD LOW position on
dry, hard-surfaced roads may cause
increased tire wear and damage to
driveline components.
• When operating your vehicle in 4WD LOW, the engine speed is
approximately three times that of the
4WD HI position at a given road
speed. Take care not to overspeed the
engine and do not exceed 25 mph
(40 km/h).
NOTE:
• If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, or a transfer case motor temperature
protection condition exists, a “For 4x4
Low Slow Below 5 MPH or 8 KPH Put
Trans in N Press 4 Low” message will
flash from the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC).
Shifting Procedures
4WD HI To 4WD LOW
• With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the ignition
switch in the ON/RUN position or the
engine running, shift the transmission
into NEUTRAL, and press the “4WD
LOW” button once on the transfer
case switch. The “4WD LOW”
indicator light in the instrument cluster
will begin to flash and remain on solid
when the shift is complete.
OFF-ROAD CAPABILITIES

4WD LOW To 4WD HI• With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the ignition
switch in the ON/RUN position or the
engine running, shift the transmission
into NEUTRAL, and press the “4WD
LOW” button once on the transfer
case switch. The “4WD LOW”
indicator light in the instrument cluster
will flash and turn off when the shift is
complete.
NOTE:
• If the shift conditions/interlocks are not met, or a transfer case motor
temperature protection exists, a “For 4x4
Low Slow Below 5 MPH or 8 KPH Put
Trans in N Press 4 Low” message will
flash on the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC).
• Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible with the vehicle completely
stopped; however, difficulty may occur
due to the mating clutch teeth not being
properly aligned. Several attempts may
be required for clutch teeth alignment
and shift completion to occur. The
preferred method is with the vehicle
rolling 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the
vehicle is moving faster than 3 mph
(5 km/h), the transfer case will not allow
the shift.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure
• Turn the ignition switch to theON/RUN position, engine off.
• Vehicle stopped, with foot on brake.
• Place the transmission into NEUTRAL. • Press and hold the NEUTRAL button
located near the 4WD mode control
knob with a pen or similar object for
four seconds. The indicator light will
begin to flash indicating the shift is in
progress. The light will stop blinking
(stay on solid) when the NEUTRAL shift
is complete. A “4WD SYSTEM IN
NEUTRAL” message will display on
the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC).
• Repeat these Steps to shift out of NEUTRAL.
SELEC-TERRAIN™
• Selec-Terrain™ combines thecapabilities of the vehicle control
systems, along with driver input, to
provide the best performance for all
terrains.
Rotate the mode control knob to select the
following Selec-Terrain™ positions: • Sport – Dry weather, on-road
calibration. Only available in 4WD
High range. Performance-based
tuning that provides a rear wheel
drive feel but with improved handling
and acceleration over a two-wheel
drive vehicle. The Electronic Stability
Control will set to allow more driver
control of the vehicle while
maintaining safe handling controls.
The vehicle will lower (if equipped
with Air Suspension) by 0.59 inches
(15 mm) in the SPORT mode.
• Snow – The Electronic Stability
Control is set for additional stability in
inclement weather. Use on and off
road on loose traction surfaces such
as snow.
• Auto – Fully automatic full-time
four-wheel drive operation can be
used on and off road. Balances
traction with steering feel to provide
improved handling and acceleration
over two-wheel drive vehicles.
